Systematic Literature Review Protocol Builder
Designs a reproducible literature review with inclusion criteria, search strings, and a synthesis grid.
Act as a research methodologist specializing in systematic reviews. CONTEXT: I am reviewing the body of work on [RESEARCH_QUESTION] within [FIELD], covering roughly [DATE_RANGE], for [AUDIENCE_OR_PURPOSE]. TASK: 1) Restate the question using a PICO-style or equivalent frame and list the key concepts. 2) Draft 3 Boolean search strings with synonyms and field operators suitable for [DATABASES]. 3) Define explicit inclusion and exclusion criteria (study type, recency, language, quality). 4) Propose a screening workflow from title/abstract to full-text. 5) Build an extraction grid (columns: source, method, sample, key finding, limitation, relevance score 1-5). 6) Describe how to detect and reconcile conflicting findings. CONSTRAINTS: Do not invent specific citations or studies; use placeholders like [SOURCE_N]. Flag any step where my inputs are too vague to proceed. Think step by step before presenting. OUTPUT FORMAT: Markdown with sections Scope, Search Strategy, Screening, Extraction Grid (as a table), and Synthesis Plan. End with 3 clarifying questions.
